DDT is a pesticide banned in Australia for its danger to humans and animals. In an experiment on the impact of DDT, six rats were exposed to DDT poisoning and six rats were not. For each rat in the experiment, a measurement of nerve sensitivity was recorded. The researchers suspected that the mean nerve sensitivity for rats exposed to DDT is greater than that for rats not poisoned. The following data was obtained:

Poisoned rats:

12.207

16.869

25.050

22.429

8.456

20.589

Unpoisoned rats:

11.074

9.686

12.064

9.351

8.182

6.642

Let 1 be the mean nerve sensitivity for rats poisoned with DDT. Let 2 be the mean nerve sensitivity for rats not poisoned with DDT.

Which of the following is the alternative hypothesis for the relevant significance testing problem?
